About the Team

We are mainly a group of students from Uppsala university and we are all interested in the field of Synthetic Biology. Our group consists of most promising young talents from different education programs. The mixing of international master students of the program in applied biotechnology and the swedish engineering program in molecular biotechnology gives our team a broad base of knowledge and skills in all sciences that compose the field of synthetic biology.

The Uppsala University has a long history of making valuable contributions in biochemistry and biotechnology. There are many research groups at the university working with projects related to Synthetic Biology. Our team is supported by the department of Photochemistry & Molecular Science (Fotomol).

Here we are, the jolly crew of the Uppsala iGEM team.

Pictures will be up soon.

Students

Anders Kristoffersson

(24) (Sweden) Master student in Molecular Biotechnology My part in this competition is mainly project development and laboratory work. I like the iGEM competition due to the large degree of freedom it offers us as students to create and explore an idea independently. Having just finished my last courses I am currently searching for a suitable project for my thesis.

Björn Skarpås

(24) (Sweden) Master student in Molecular Biotechnology I am just finishing my regular studies at the Molecular biotechnology programme and am supposed to do my masters thesis this autumn. I work with the simulations of our regulatory system. I like the mixing of engineering, math and biology that iGEM is.

Erik Florman

(26) (Sweden) Master student in Molecular Biotechnology

Jonatan Halvardson

(24) (Sweden) Master student in Molecular Biotechnology

Karl Brune

(21) (Germany) Bachelor Student Job Creation Oriented Biotechnology

I am a 2nd year bachelor undergraduate student in the Job Creation Oriented Biotechnology - International First Level Degree at the University of Perugia, Italy. The application of biology for nowadays life is very exciting in my eyes as it offers a broad band of possibilities. iGEM is for me a great oppurtunity to realize my ideas and to learn so much more about Synthetic Biology.
